Ingredients

  • 1 cup ghee (you can also use oil, but ghee gives the best flavor)

  • 1 kg beef (cut into small pieces) – you can also use mutton

  • 1 tbsp garlic paste

  • 1 tbsp ginger paste (to be added later)

  • ½ tbsp red chili powder

  • 1 tsp turmeric powder

  • 1 tbsp salt

  • 1 tbsp crushed coriander

  • 1 tsp roasted cumin powder

  • 6 medium tomatoes (finely chopped)

  • 1 liter water

  • 1 tsp ginger paste (added later for extra flavor)

  • 1 tsp green chili paste

  • 3 tbsp yogurt

  • 6-7 whole green chilies

  • Fresh coriander (chopped)

  • Julienne-cut ginger for garnish

Instructions:

Step 1: Cooking the Beef

  • Heat ghee in a pan. Once it's hot, add the beef pieces.

  • Sauté the beef for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it turns a beautiful golden brown.

  • The beef will release some water. Continue cooking until all the water evaporates and the beef is well-browned.

Step 2: Adding the Spices

  • Add garlic paste and sauté for 1-2 minutes.

  • Now, add red chili powder, turmeric powder, salt, crushed coriander, and roasted cumin powder.

  • To prevent the spices from burning, add a little water and mix well.

  • Sauté the spices for 3-4 minutes until the oil separates.

Step 3: Cooking the Tomatoes

  • Add chopped tomatoes and cover the pan for 5 minutes to soften their skin.

  • Once soft, remove the tomato skins as they are not very healthy and can affect the texture of the dish.

  • Mash the tomatoes well and sauté for another 5 minutes until they blend completely into the gravy.

Step 4: Cooking the Beef Further

  • Add 1 liter of water, cover the pan, and let it cook on low heat for about 30 minutes until the beef is fully tender.

  • After 30 minutes, check if the beef is fully cooked and soft.

Step 5: Final Touches

  • Now, add ginger paste and green chili paste for an extra burst of flavor.

  • Stir well and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  • Add yogurt and mix quickly to prevent curdling.

  • Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the oil separates.

Step 6: Garnishing and Serving

  • Finally, add whole green chilies, chopped coriander, and julienned ginger for an aromatic touch.

  • Mix well and turn off the heat.
